Children should never be burdened with keeping secrets about abuse. Let's teach them that it's essential to share any uncomfortable or harmful experiences with trusted adults. #NoMoreSecrets #SpeakUp

Thirteen lives lost in just three months is a stark, devastating reality that cannot be brushed aside as isolated domestic incidents; it is a national crisis of gender-based violence and femicide. Let us unite and stand together to end GBV.
As Shamwari Yemwanasikana Organization, Friend of the Girl Child, we are raising an alarm over a growing femicide crisis in Zimbabwe. In just three months, from June to September 2026, we have documented at least thirteen women and children killed in domestic and intimate partner

Consent is an ongoing conversation and must be obtained every time for every activity. A past "yes" does not imply present consent. Someone who is underage, asleep, intoxicated, or coerced cannot give valid consent.#consent #consentmatters #consenteducation #sexualabuseawareness

Sending explicit content without consent, pressuring someone for nudes, or sharing private images is abuse. If it violates someone’s boundaries, it’s not flirting—it’s harassment. Report online sexual abuse! #OnlineSafety #NoToAbuse #DigitalBoundaries

Online abuse thrives in silence. Every time we ignore it, we allow it to grow. Whether you're a witness or a survivor, your voice matters. Speak up, support others, and help build a digital space where everyone feels safe. #StopOnlineAbuse #DigitalSafety #SpeakOut #TFGBV
